Supa Qool DJ Quartermaine - Nightmare On Beat Street

I got new mix for you from Diamond District's Supa Qool DJ Quartermaine. I'll let Q explain the concept behind this ill mix of 80's joints himself:

I came up with the title "Nightmare on Beat Street" as a play on "Nightmare on Elm Street". The main character Freddy would kill his victims in their sleep and the only way for them to avoid this fateful outcome was to "Wake-Up". I feel Hip-Hop (Beat Street) is in this situation now...

I made this mix the weekend after Gucci Mane got his "Ice Cream" face tattoo. I wanted to produce a blend tape that represented the exact opposite of where I see the culture going, and revisit a time when Hip-Hop was truly a tool for teaching, knowledge and especially Black Pride.

Evil Dee - Live On Da Beatmerz Radio

Thanks to Northern Ireland's DJ A To The L we have audio from one of the Da Beatminerz ustream broadcasts.

There's far too many songs to write a tracklist but on Part 1 (59 minutes) Evil Dee spins mostly original samples and on Part 2 (1 hour & 34 minutes) he spins 80's & 90's RnB, Hip Hop and  a few breaks. Can nobody bring it raw and rugged like Evil Dee can. You going love these mixes.

With Volume 6 of his Remix Files series Thomax continues releasing some quality hardcore Hip Hop.

Now this is some ill stuff right here. Japan's Progress Nude Crew (Hiro aka Melodiverse and DJ Ryo aka Questello) remixes a slew tunes you know and love.

Although this remix collection is pretty long (2 cds worth) all remixes are pretty outstanding. PNC's soulful vibes will make your head nod and satisfy all your Hip Hop needs. These remixes are so dope I'm even including some on my upcoming mix "The Producer's Journey".

Inphy - The Remixtape

The Czech Republic's 19 year old beatmaker Inphy seems to have a good ear for samples and has made a pretty solid remix album. Listening to this makes me wonder why with young beatmakers out there like Inphy did Rakim have such weak wack music for the Seventh Seal?

One thing to note you'll notice a remix (track 7) that features somebody well known to many mixtape fans..... Supa Qool DJ Uncle Q aka DJ Quatermaine.

And for digital deejays these are 320kbps mp3s.

Cee & Bekah - The Soul Movement Originals

An Australian Soul/Hip Hop duo consisting of an white emcee and Desi singer? You know this either works great or fails miserly. You also know I don't post wack stuff so trust me this duo can deliver with the good music.

Australia’s Cee & Bekah have been dropping The Soul Movement mixtapes (Here) since 2007. After three volumes of the mixtape they have finally released an full length album.

The Producer's Journey Vol 1 & 2

I got the idea for this mix from the Bad Things Come in 3's series from DJ Dopeshoes and Lost Remixes by DJ C Los. With so many great productions over the years it seemed like a no-brainer to pay tribute to the many producers that shaped and (still) support the true Hip Hop sound we all love so well.

Unlike Volume one on Volume 2 I added more producers and limited song selection to 2 songs for each producer. For volume three I think I will keep that format  as well.

Hexsagon - A Decade Of Remixes

I'm new to Hexsagon's production work but this mix of of a decade's worth on material is solid as can be. I would describe Hexsagon's style as DJ Premier meets Kev Brown meets DJ Muggs. Sounds good doesn't it? This mix by Mr. Mo is as good as you can imagine.

DJ Muggs and Bambu - Los Angeles Philippines Mixtape

Here's some new Soul Assassins for you today. Many of the beats are a little mediocre for my taste but one track "Heist" is as good as any other Muggs produced track.

The "mixed" version is nothing but recording of a past West Wing radio show and overall the mastering on the tracks is a little off. The vocals by Bambu seem to be a few decibels too loud for some of the tracks but it's still worth a listen.

Mohammad Dangerfield - Free 99

New Jersey's Hasan Salaam and NYC's Rugged N Raw join forces to bring you one of my favorite albums of 2010. I'm new to Rugged N Raw but Hasan Salaam has been on radar for years now. He always brings it raw and gritty and with "Mohammad Dangerfield" he continues to give you the dope raw Hip Hop you'll expect.

One strange thing to note: Although the song "The BBQ Joint" was released as the first single (and video) off the album. The song is not contained within "Free $.99". However I included it within the zip file as bonus song.
